The majestic Himalayas have always been a source of inspiration and wonder. Royal Enfield Social Mission has brought this spirit to life with its first-ever multidisciplinary festival, ‘Journeying Across the Himalayas.’ Held at the iconic Travancore Palace in New Delhi, this 10-day celebration runs from December 5 to 15, offering an immersive exploration of Himalayan culture, resilience, and landscapes.
Inaugurated by Union Minister Shri Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, the event seeks to promote the legacy and ecological balance of the Himalayas. Royal Enfield’s goal is clear: foster a connection with over 100 Himalayan communities and champion their cultural and environmental heritage.
The festival blends visual art, conservation efforts, and immersive storytelling. Highlights include:
Visitors can participate in panel discussions, workshops, and film screenings covering climate resilience, responsible tourism, and cultural preservation. The spotlight is on local voices, including youth changemakers and experts from the Himalayan region.
The Himalayan Knot Exhibit captures textile stories, weaving myths and craftsmanship from nine distinct Himalayan regions, while the Evolution of Ice Hockey in Ladakh celebrates six decades of the sport’s growth, highlighting Royal Enfield’s role in developing winter sports ecosystems.
No cultural festival is complete without music and cuisine. Performers such as Taba Chake, Bipul Chettri, and Parvaaz bring the rhythms of the mountains to life. The Food Lab offers a culinary journey through Himalayan flavors, featuring creations by celebrated chefs.
At the Himalayan Bazaar, visitors can shop for artisanal crafts and sustainable products, from handwoven textiles to exclusive pop-ups of Royal Enfield’s Himalayan Knot Collection.
This festival is more than a cultural showcase—it’s a call to preserve the fragile ecosystem of the Himalayas. Through partnerships, art, and community engagement, Royal Enfield’s initiative connects urban audiences to the challenges and beauty of mountain life, fostering awareness and collective action.
‘Journeying Across the Himalayas’ is a testament to the power of culture and sustainability, offering visitors a rare chance to journey through the heart of India’s most iconic landscapes.
